Congratulations again to the TROXELL family from San Francisco, who visited us on the 29th. of June and were our first visitors. We would be happy to have news from them. If anyone happens to know them, would you please pass the message as we do not have their coordinates and would love to hear from them ! 

Thank you, Elisabetta for having passed a word. We liked it very much.
Silvia and Lorenzo from Parma, Italy, how are you ?

We also got news from Merle and John, from Cape Town, South Africa, back home now, after their European trip.

Hello Andrea and Mark from Germany, Wie geht's ? Will you be coming to REUNION in December ?

We've just got pictures from Isolde from Germany. Thank you very much. With your permission you'll see some of them on our Web site. We hope you feel better now. If Erich can read those lines, would you please let us have your e-mail details ?

Hello, Piet from Antwerpen, have you had a good time in France after you left us ?

And you Doina, overthere in America, you came with Eva and Alain, we would be happy to hear from all of you !

In the meantime we had quite a few visitors whom we know, aren't in a position to read those lines, but we say HELLO to them. 

Now, there is a special mention to Claudia and Andreas, from RIO, Brazil, who stayed with us 10 days/9nights. We fairly enjoyed having them. An other meeting thanks to the Web ! It took 2 days, before they leave RIO, for them to decide they would come to Anjou. Funnily, they'd insisted on taking their own bikes on flight and train. Unfortunately, it was not very easy to take the bikes onboard TGV and I know the hassle they encountered to get to Angers. We prepared some specials for them and they could enjoy some nice bike tours throughout the vineyards. By the way, it seems that you have beaten records, staying 10 days/9 nights @ Le Clos de la Touche and, as such we shall be pleased to offer you a special award when you next come to Anjou. Thank you for the photos which you gave us for the Web site ! We look forward to seeing you again !

Claudia and Andreas

We're pleased to say our best regards to Kevin's wife, from New Zeeland, who unfortunately could not join for a 3-days, successful bike tour, in Anjou. We hope that Kevin and yourself are now at best of health.

Now, we've to say to Tania and Jennifer (South Africa/London) how sorry we are for the very bad weather they had one or two days on their way from Saumur to Chambord. Should I dare say that this week is lovely ? (But cold !)

Very recently we had Doris and Douglas from Scotland who came to evaluate possibilities of organizing bike tours in the Loire Valley, as they do at home. By the way, if you'd like to cycle wonderful Scotland, visit Scottish Cycling Holidays or get in touch with Douglas on our behalf ! They offer a wide a large choice of tours and do care as we do !

Hello Irene and Tony from London ! It was nice to have you for your overnight stay Sunday last. How went your trek after you left us Monday morning ? We're pleased to see that gorgeous weather is accompanying you. We're sure you've enjoyed it !

Now, that's all for today Folks !
